BOLD Expressions
Super Wonder Gallery
November 4th and 5th 2016

A couple of weeks before my solo exhibition, "Beauty is Varied", I had the pleasure of exhibiting three of my beauty portraits at Super Wonder Gallery in the BOLD Expressions group show. The show boasted hundreds of artworks in a variety of mediums and capturing a variety of subjects. The curators Tanzina Amin and Carlos Sa Rodrigues did a fabulous job arranging the artworks in a beautiful and meaningful way. I feel so honoured to have been a part of it and to have my work hung alongside that of such talented artists! Not to mention, Super Wonder Gallery is among my favourite galleries in Toronto.  It was truly a great night!

If you're in WEST TORONTO you might have seen some of my flyers and cards hanging around! Yesterday my husband Darren and I walked up and down Queen West, King West, and Dundas from Strachan Ave. to Roncesvalles Ave. Check out the message boards and TTC stops for a poster and be sure to take a pic of it (or with it)! Feel free to post it online with the hash tags #MalindaPrudhomme #BeautyIsVaried OR you can post it in my Facebook Event Page HERE. Either way I'd love it if you spread the word about my show! I invested so much into this event; time, money, energy, love, not too mention my hopes and dreams; so I can use all the support I can get. Hope to see you there! :D

I'm standing at the corner of Queen West and Gladstone Ave. (see the signs?) and there in the distance is our home! That's part of what makes this show so SPECIAL to me! It's right in my backyard and right in Toronto's Art & Design District! :)
